The picture is just clipped onto the coaster so it can be changed if needed. I used a heavy weight coaster for this and covered it with designer paper from SU.
I punched a tag (Pure Poppy PTI) and stamped Merry Christmas from the All I Want for Christmas sentiment set by H&M Stamps on it.
I attached the tag to a white card stock rectangle (2 1/2 x 3 1/2) and attached that to the covered coaster.
The belt is 1/2" black grosgrain ribbon and the belt buckle is made from a 1" square of Summer Sunrise card stock. I punched two slots on it using the slot punch to slide the ribbon through.
Lorri had attached magnets to the back of her coaster - but I made an easel stand for mine using a rectangle piece of coaster that I scored 1/2" down from the top to allow it to bend and attached it with Scotch Quick Dry Adhesive - that's also what I used to attach the DP to the coaster.
and yes - that's me on the left (4 years old) with my sister Marcia - could our bangs be any shorter???!!! LOL!!!

How sweet is this, Julia! I see you still have bangs, just a little longer. What a great idea to use a photo of you and your sister. This is just amazingly wonderful!
